Year 1

Term 1 Summary:

We have had a great start to Year 1!

We have enjoyed listening to many traditional tales and we have written our own versions of the story Little Red Riding Hood in English. As part of our Maths learning we have been consolidating our knowledge of the place value of numbers as well as using many different resources to solve simple addition problems.

In DT, we received a letter from Mummy Pig asking us to make a new house for her Little Pigs. It needed to be waterproof and opaque. In Science, we tested different materials to see which material would be the best to use. The Big Bad Wolf then came to see if our houses were strong enough.

We enjoyed going to the computer suite this term. In Computing, we have really developed our mouse and keyboard skills.

In Geography we have been looking at the countries of the UK. We looked at maps of Rodbourne and we spotted our school. Later in the term, we created our own maps of the school playground and we thought about what areas we liked and disliked.

Have a look at some of the pictures of our learning!
